Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Molecular Biology focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying biological processes, including gene regulation, protein function, and cellular signaling. Recent articles explore topics such as epigenetic regulation by lactate, transcriptional control by DNA-binding proteins, the role of DNA methylation in disease diagnosis, protein degradation pathways, genetic associations with diseases like schizophrenia, the impact of gene mutations on drug efficacy, the function of DNA helicases in genomic stability, bacterial genome manipulation, aptamer development for diagnostics and therapy, the molecular effects of hemorrhagic shock, advancements in cancer treatment using gene and cell technologies, toxin-antitoxin systems in bacteria, the role of microRNAs in immune cell development, the neuroprotective mechanisms of trehalose, the design and synthesis of novel chemical compounds with biological activity, cellular responses to hypoxia, the influence of nutrients on cancer cell behavior, the role of cuproptosis in reproductive health, and the expression of recombinant plant lectins.
